Apple hazelnut bourbon muffins

A friend of mine had her birthday recently and I thought it was a good opportunity to offer a muffin mould that I’m barely using. As offering a used muffin mould doesn’t sound so great, I thought that baking muffins to give with the mould would be a good idea. So here there are, apple muffins, which is quite an unusual thing for me given I rarely bake any. I’ve used this recipe for proportions, but I took a few liberties.

Ingredients (makes 12)

3 small tart apples (in my case, Jonagold)

110 ml white sugar

1 tsp brown sugar

480 ml flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

80g chopped and toasted hazelnuts

2 eggs

240 ml buttermilk

130g butter

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

2 cl bourbon (I’ve used Jim Beam)

Instructions

Slice one and a half apples very thin without peeling it

Heat up 1 tsp butter in a frying pan

When hot, add the sliced apples with 1 tsp brown sugar

When soften, add the bourbon and set on fire. Be a bit more careful than me and do this from afar (if you look at it from above, you might burn your eyebrows).

Something combining Bourbon and apples has to be good. I’ll copy the recipe, I often bake muffins or cupcakes. (You could have used the muffin tin for savory cakes, too!) I have way too many kitchen gadgets and keep adding to them – you never know when opportunity comes your way 🙂
